Abstract
Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus (DM), have become major health issues in Luwung Village, Cirebon Regency. On the other hand, communicable diseases such as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and acute respiratory infections (ARI) remain threats that require attention. This study aims to analyze the community's health conditions based on free health check-ups and evaluate healthcare efforts in preventing and managing both communicable and non-communicable diseases.
Methods: This study employed a convenience sampling method, where 60 residents of Luwung Village who attended the village hall participated in free health check-ups. The collected data were analyzed descriptively to determine the distribution of the disease. Additionally, observations and evaluations were conducted on healthcare service programs in the village, including NCD screening activities (Posbindu PTM), dengue prevention campaigns, cough etiquette education, and handwashing with soap (CTPS) campaigns.
Results: The examination results showed that 18% of residents were in good health, 48% had hypertension, 20% had diabetes mellitus, and 14% suffered from both diseases. These findings indicate a high prevalence of NCDs in the village. Healthcare efforts implemented include Posbindu PTM, management of hypertension and DM patients, and education on healthy and clean lifestyles. For communicable diseases, preventive measures included dengue prevention campaigns through the 3M Plus Movement, cough etiquette education for ARI and tuberculosis prevention, and CTPS campaigns to reduce the spread of infections.
Conclusion: The high prevalence of hypertension and diabetes in Luwung Village highlights the need for increased routine check-ups and community health education. Meanwhile, efforts to prevent communicable diseases must be continually strengthened through the empowerment of healthcare cadres, clean living campaigns, and the enhancement of community-based healthcare services. With an integrated strategy, it is expected that the community's health quality can improve significantly.
